Lok Janshakti Party (LJP) chief Ram Vilas Paswan, who kicked off his 'Bihar Bachao'
(Save Bihar) yatra from here on Saturday, lashed out at the Nitish Kumar-led state
government accusing it of large-scale corruption, embezzlement of fund and rising
crime graph.

"Lok Janshakti Party spent the year 2012 in Jan Sampark Yatra. We worked on all
issues, be it Rs. 82,000 crores large-scale corruption or 6,000 MNREGA scandal or
people dying after consuming illicit liquor. We conducted the Jan Sampark Yatra
on all these issues in 2012 and we announced that we would take out a yatra in 2013.
